本文在均值-方差框架下研究了背景风险对投资者投资组合选择的影响，分析了有效投资组合的性质以及存在背景风险时投资者的套期保值行为。我们的模型意味着，背景风险的有效投资组合可以分为两个独立的组成部分：传统的均值-方差有效投资组合，和一个自我融资的组成部分构建对冲背景风险。我们的分析还表明，背景风险的存在使金融资产的有效边界向右移动，而其形状没有变化。此外，对冲组合的组成和有效边界的位置都受到许多背景风险因素的影响，包括背景资产在总财富中的比例以及背景风险与金融风险之间的相关性。(C)2010 Elsevier B. V.保留所有权利。
This paper investigates the impact of background risk on an investor's portfolio choice in a mean-variance framework, and analyzes the properties of efficient portfolios as well as the investor's hedging behaviour in the presence of background risk. Our model implies that the efficient portfolio with background risk can be separated into two independent components: the traditional mean-variance efficient portfolio, and a self-financing component constructed to hedge against background risk. Our analysis also shows that the presence of background risk shifts the efficient frontier of financial assets to the right with no changes in its shape. Moreover, both the composition of the hedge portfolio and the location of the efficient frontier are greatly affected by a number of background risk factors, including the proportion of background assets in total wealth and the correlation between background risk and financial risk.
